Description :

The heart of Boston Ballet is the human experience. Through our living and breathing art, we forge human connections—between artist and attendee, teacher and trainee, friend and newcomer, one's outer and inner self. We believe that the community of employees that makes dance possible is better together when talented individuals with varied life experiences, identities, races, cultures and ideas are welcomed, encouraged, and heard.

The Dyer / Painter is a Full-Time Seasonal, non-exempt position that works a set number of weeks each season depending upon the annual needs of the Costume Shop.

The Dyer / Painter will dye or paint various textiles, garments, and accessories in quantities ranging from small amounts to several yards.

The Dyer / Painter will also assist with craft work as needed. Work hours are Monday through Friday, 10am-6pm with some additional evening / weekend hours as needed during high volume periods.
